Hod's Message

A warm and affectionate welcome from the Department of Electronics & Communication Engineering at Bhagwan Mahavir College of Engg & Tech, Surat. It is one of the professional engineering disciplines that are most vibrant and innovative in terms of student activity, facility, research and designing. Our department has a team of qualified and experienced faculty and staff members and we are striving hard continuously to improve upon the quality of education and to maintain its position of leadership in engineering and technology. We always work with the motto ““All Birds find shelter during a rain. But Eagle avoids rain by flying above the Clouds.” – Dr. A.P.J Abdul Kalam.” The core values of the department help the students to develop their overall personality and make them worthy technocrat to compete and work at competitive global level with multidimensional personalities. Many of our students have been recognised for their innovative projects. Our department has very cordial atmosphere between faculty & students. Our department has always been known for its conductive ambience, where students flourish & cherish. Faculty members of our department are always involved in cutting edge research apart from passionate teaching. We are proud to have an exceptionally dedicated, motivated & experienced faculty as our family members. We constantly look for bright enthusiastic students who have passion to participate in all our activities & promote them to various platforms. Our department has been conducting seminar / workshops since its beginning to keep the faculty and students abreast with the latest developments in the field of electronics and communication. I am certain that our students will prove to be an invaluable asset to an organization.

Alumni support has always been a great driving force in the progress of the institution & we value it.

Finally, our department has a long valued tradition of striving for excellence in whatever we do. I hope we will be able to maintain this in future too.
